Persona 5 Strikers - Towards a Dream (Vocal Cover)

After basically 1,000 years, I'm back!!! Sorry for being away for so long, but I've been struggling with my mental health for a bit. Nowadays though I am feeling much better :)

During my absence, I did manage to play a few video games. Persona 5 Strikers was particularly a stand out for its amazing soundtrack (I mean... I'm not surprised. It's Persona after all!). After finishing the game, "Towards a Dream" began playing as the credits rolled in, and I couldn't help but shed a few tears since the lyrics were very relevant to how I've been feeling. There were many times when I wanted to give up to be real with you. Not just music, but just... life in general. I was (and still am to some extent) anxious and scared about the future. What do I really want to do in life? Should I pursue music? Am I even good enough to pursue that? These are a few questions that have plagued my mind so frequently until I decided that enough was enough. Nothing is going to happen if I don't do something, you know? So after a bit of encouragement from someone in my life, I began working on my YouTube channel again. Now, I won't go pretending that I have my life completely together. I still have no clue what I'm doing haha, but these past few months have taught me that it's okay to figure things out one day at a time. And that I have to be kinder to myself when I stumble. That's why the lyrics, "Then I may learn/to love myself/a little more than before" hit so hard.

Working on this song has thus been very therapeutic for me. It's also been so relieving to know that I can still be creative and enjoy it. For example, I worked hard on the harmonies this time around... without my sister's help for once! Super proud of what I was able to accomplish. Now if only I could figure out how to mix them properly so that you can hear them better, but it's good for now lol. Drawing Sophia for the thumbnail was also fun! I kept her pose simple since it was my first time drawing in a while.

Thanks so much for sticking around, guys! I'm working on finishing Indomitable Will, so that is what I'm planning for the next upload. See you all until then!
